A fairly uneventful morning skate for the Carolina Hurricanes will see only one lineup change for tonight’s matchup with the New York Islanders. Eddie Lack will get the start, his first of the season against the Isles, after Cam Ward took a maintenance day at the morning skate. With just two home games remaining, it seems likely that Bill Peters is rolling each goaltender out once in front of the home crowd in the last week of the season, and Ward is probably going to play Saturday against the Blues.
Here are the players whose jerseys will be given to a few lucky fans after the game tonight:
Sebastian Aho - Jordan Staal - Elias Lindholm
Joakim Nordstrom - Victor Rask - Teuvo Teravainen
Jeff Skinner - Derek Ryan - Lee Stempniak
Bryan Bickell - Andrew Poturalski - Brock McGinn
Jaccob Slavin - Brett Pesce
Noah Hanifin - Justin Faulk
Klas Dahlbeck - Matt Tennyson
Eddie Lack
Cam Ward
Injuries and Scratches: Jay McClement (lower-body), Ryan Murphy (lower-body)
The Islanders, meanwhile, have their backs against the wall.
